Małachowskiego Street, Pedestrian street in Downtown, Sosnowiec, Poland.
Małachowskiego Street is a 750-meter pedestrian zone in central Sosnowiec that intersects with major streets including 3 Maja Street, Kościelna Street, and Targowa Street. It connects different parts of downtown and provides space for walking and shopping.
Originally called Fabryczna Street, it received its current name in 1916 to honor the 125th anniversary of Poland's May 3rd Constitution. This renaming reflected events that held significance for the city at that time.
The street contains banking buildings from the 1920s with academic classicism design and preserved original facades that shape its character. Today it serves as a gathering place where people notice and appreciate the architectural details from that era.
The street underwent major renovation in 2021 and is now a complete pedestrian zone with no car traffic. The area is well lit and equipped with modern facilities, making it comfortable to spend time there.
The 'Come to Małacha' initiative launched in 2015 promoted the opening of restaurants and hosting of events like Sosnowiec Oktoberfest. This movement transformed the street from a simple passage into a destination for people seeking food and entertainment.
